There is an overview (Readme file) of system requirements, etc.
for AN1xEdit included with the download along with some
example banks of AN1x Voices in .an1 format. In addition, there
is an indexed AN1xEdit Help file available from within the
program. Please feel free to post back to the list with specific
issues if you get hung up on something :-)

There has been much, thorough discussion regarding USB MIDI
Interfaces in use with AN1xEdit on both Mac and Win. It is
particularly problematic on the Mac platform using OMS. If you
are interested in the details I would recommend you search the
list archives where you will find posts specific to USB Bandwidth
vs. Error Checking vs. the size of the SysEx packets used by the
AN1x vs. different brands of USB capable MIDI Interfaces. Be
aware the SysEx dump files for the AN1x are unusually large in
size compared to many other synths, i.e., not very efficient.

Welcome to the list.

regards,

Jon
